BTW, where is initialPosition documented? Shouldn't it be described here?

Thanks..

That looks suspiciously like the 7px shadow cast off the edge of the window 馃槈

I'm also urgently looking for finally being able to set it pixel-perfect at 0,0.

Also specifing the width and height in pixels instead of columns and rows would be helpful for compensating the lack of being able to start docked to the left half of my monitor.

initialPosition _is_ in pixels! This bug is caused by the OS lying about the size of the window鈥檚 borders subtly :smile:

Thanks, @DHowett, I know. I was refering to the width and height in my second sentence.

Regarding the bug, I'm fighting these "wrong" positions and dimensions since years.
